Greensburg Blocks on the Way

Finally, finally I sent off the blocks for Greensburg, KS. The packaging had a bit of a TX theme. We are a proud lot. I wasn't born here...

The SOWs put together a dozen blocks. Here they are one more time.

I found this picture when I was cleaning out photos from my cell phone camera.
The story goes, I was working on Josh's clogs, it was February, I was in Minneapolis for a presscheck and it was -7 degrees outside. I signed off on the last component and made a mad dash for the airport during rush hour traffic. I soon realized I wasn't going to make my flight and it was the last one out on Friday night. I was stuck. But I had knitting. It was the weekend, the evening was mine even if I was in MN. So I knit. I reached a point where I was ready to do a three needle bind-off, but I didn't have a third needle. The "needle" you see in the front is actually one of the hotel pens. In a pinch, it worked.
